Table Lamp by Arne Jacobsen in a Mini Anniversary Edition

The AJ Mini table lamp by Louis Poulsen is part of the AJ series of lamps by Arne Jacobsen, who designed the lamps back in 1957 for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. In 2020, Louis Poulsen is celebrating the 60th anniversary of the hotel’s opening with the relaunch of the AJ Mini table lamp. With its compact design, the lamp is particularly practical and decorative on a windowsill or nightstand.

Made of die-cast zinc and steel with a swiveling head

The AJ lamp’s profile stands out for its clean, straight lines and the combination of slanted and right angles, echoing the hotel’s geometric design. The lamp is crafted from die-cast zinc and steel and is available in a wide range of colors. With its interior painted white, the lamp emits a pleasantly diffused light that can be optimally adjusted for any situation thanks to the swiveling lamp head. This allows you to create both direct, focused light and soft, indirect light as desired.
